Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at the expressions of the two veterans after listening to his words and said with a smile: "What I mean is that this westward march is still focused on the Anti-Alliance. After all, in terms of equipment, we are still
It has its own advantages. In addition to allocating two to three brigades to cooperate with our operations, the rest of the main force of the advancing army will go into rest and recuperation after the Battle of Jehol."
"While resting and recuperating, the troops will undergo large-scale training for at least two to three months, focusing on various combined combat training including infantry and artillery coordination training and attack training. There will also be air defense and anti-tank training, as well as mine-laying and demining training.
Training on field fortifications and defense fortification construction. Some personnel from the advancing army were selected to conduct tank and car driving training, anti-aircraft gun operation training, and even aircraft ground guidance training."
"At the same time, we will replenish some equipment for the advancing army, adjust the artillery structure of the column, and establish brigade anti-tank artillery, mountain artillery battalions, heavy mortar units, regiment mortar units, and air defense units. Increase the number of machine guns in combat units,
The number of recoilless rifles, rocket launchers, anti-aircraft machine guns and other weapons will be increased, and team-affiliated air defense units will be established. The original brigade-affiliated anti-tank artillery will be strengthened to the regimental level."
"The equipment to be supplemented for the advancing army has been transported to Qiqihar by rail. As long as the Western Manchuria campaign is over, all equipment can be replaced. In addition, we will replenish some pack horses for the advancing army according to the needs of the advancing army. At the same time, we will replenish the equipment for the advancing army.
All the military uniforms for the march have been shipped to Qiqihar. At least the colors of our military uniforms must be unified. It is not good for an army to have three or four colors of military uniforms."
"However, it depends on the wishes of the two old chiefs whether they go north to Qiqihar for training and change their uniforms, or stay in Rehe for training and uniform changes. But in my opinion, in order to ensure that the troops advance into the army, they need to change their uniforms."
Pretending not to be disturbed, it would be better to go north to Qiqihar."
"Rehe is the site of the Fourth War, and it is very close to the place where the Japanese and puppet troops are heavily stationed. The change of uniforms and training here are easily interfered by the Japanese and puppet troops. Although we are not afraid of them, I think we should try our best to reorganize the troops.
It is good to be free from interference to ensure that the combat effectiveness is improved as soon as possible."
"At the same time, there is a railway in Qiqihar that connects to the hinterland of Northern Manchuria, and the transportation is quite convenient. After the troops complete basic training there, it is also more convenient to transfer to the Anti-Japanese Federation's comprehensive training base in Fujin. Now we are preparing for this advancing army
Cultivated according to the backbone and seeds.”
"It is not only the combat troops that need to be trained, but also personnel at all levels from the political department, cultural troupe, logistics department, and field hospitals. Military training must also be carried out. To enable them to have the ability to protect themselves when necessary. What happened today
, it can’t be repeated again. Although they are female soldiers, they are still soldiers, and they are still wearing military uniforms. Soldiers don’t know how to fight, so what do you think of herding sheep when you encounter an enemy?”
"The art troupe is a propaganda team, but it is also a fighting team. But now we only focus on propaganda, but have forgotten their actual identity as soldiers. In addition to playing, singing, and dancing, other basic skills of soldiers have been forgotten. This is not
Have you really become the actor you used to be?"
"If this were in the Anti-Japanese War, I would drag them out to get good training. The purpose of forming an art troupe is to boost the morale of the troops, not as a wife reserve group for cadres at all levels. When necessary, they should be brought to the front line to boost morale.
Opportunities to encounter the enemy are not rare. Once you encounter the enemy, how can you do nothing but run away? At least you must have the necessary self-defense capabilities. The female soldiers in the art troupe must ensure that they can perform on stage and fight when off stage.
.”
"There are also field hospitals. Both doctors and nurses need to be trained. The Japanese army is good at small-unit infiltration operations. They don't care about the Geneva Treaty. Field hospitals are their key targets. Our originally qualified doctors and nurses are surprisingly good.
If you don’t have this kind of precious wealth and don’t even have the basic ability to protect yourself, it’s absolutely impossible.”
"This time we are adjusting the equipment of the advancing army, including the female soldiers of the Art Troupe. According to the standards of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, each person is issued a submachine gun and 150 rounds of ammunition. All doctors and nurses, considering their
The nature and intensity of the work. Each person has a short rifle and fifty rounds of ammunition. But all people must receive training in the use of other rifles and submachine guns and must be able to use them skillfully."
After listening to Yang Zhen's thoughts, the commander knocked on the table and pondered for a long time before saying: "From your overall plan, your existing technical equipment is sufficient, but the number of troops invested is still slightly insufficient.
.Although our two brigades are assigned to us, we know the advantages and disadvantages of our own troops."
"The advantages of our troops are that they are strong in political ideology, brave in combat, good at mobile warfare, guerrilla warfare, mountain warfare, and dare to fight hand-to-hand combat. If we follow your fighting style, our troops will need to go through a long period of training. Even if they are mobilized
The strength of the two brigades can at most be responsible for defensive operations, or part of the containment and reinforcement tasks."
"Although the equipment is now up, judging from our daily training and command capabilities, we are still capable of concentrating a brigade to deal with half a Japanese regiment or two Japanese infantry brigades. If there are more, I am afraid it will be a little inadequate.
The average strength of one of our brigade is more than 3,000, and usually less than 4,000. It is still possible to deal with a fully formed Japanese regiment under favorable terrain."
"But on the grassland landscape like Chabei, it is very difficult to do it. The gap is the gap, there is nothing to hide. Not to mention a brigade, just a column can eat up a regular Japanese army in a field battle
I am afraid that it will be very difficult for the wing. This is not only a problem of equipment, but also a problem of integrated training and command of the troops. Previously, we were restricted by our equipment, not to mention cadres at the brigade level, but cadres at the column level.
They all have very little experience in synthetic command.”
"There is no way, we have been seriously short of artillery since the Red Army. There are only a few mortars in each legion, and there are only a few artillery shells. When the troops are fighting, they are rarely covered by artillery fire. Therefore, most military cadres
There is no experience in commanding a combined force, especially a combined infantry and artillery force. Most of the commanders have not received systematic military training."
"Now that the equipment has been upgraded, it does not mean that the command capabilities and combat capabilities of the troops have also improved. Poor air defense capabilities and poor coordination between infantry and artillery are fatal shortcomings. Even many troops still have poor use and configuration of machine guns.
They only know how to fight and rush forward. A considerable number of cadres do not know how to use maps or compasses. They rely entirely on crude methods to direct operations."
"We know very well that in field battles with the Japanese regular divisions, especially on plain terrain, these two brigades can play a limited role. They may be competent in defensive tasks, but if they are responsible for combat tasks in the main direction,
It’s beyond their power.”
"This is not because we underestimate ourselves, but because of the long-term mountain mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare, our commanders and troops are currently not adapted to your regular combat mode. Due to the long-term shortage of ammunition, we have not conducted similar training. During the assembly and training period,
Due to confidentiality reasons, there is not much similar training, and more time is spent on seizing the time to familiarize yourself with the equipment and raise the necessary materials for exit. Poor combined combat capability is a common phenomenon in the army."
"If the Japanese North China Front troops are deployed to reinforce the Mongolian garrison, your increase in troops is actually an unchangeable reality. And while you still have to stick to the base area in North Manchuria, you can allocate troops to protect the Western Manchuria area.
It’s quite limited.”
"In particular, the line from Nanxing'an to Rehe has become a rather long and relatively shallow arc-shaped area, which can easily become a key target of the Japanese army. Moreover, on such a long front, any point may be attacked by the Japanese army.
Target. You must know that our enemy is not only the North China Front Army, but also the Kwantung Army in the hinterland of Northeast China. When fighting here, we have to face pressure from two aspects."
"We can't have the traffic lines north of Rehe cut off after clearing the customs, right? No mistakes can be made in either Rehe or the Beiman base area. With such a long front, if it is fortified everywhere, it can only
We will be beaten passively. If we adopt mobile defense tactics, we need to retain a strong mobile force in Jehol. Therefore, I think we should stay in Jehol for training and re-equipment."
"You just said that Rehe is the fourth battle. It is connected to Liaoning and Jilin to the east, and to the Xing'an provinces to the north. To the south, you can go directly to Pingjin, and to the west, you can seize Chahar and the Datong line. This has been a strategic location since ancient times.
It is the only place for northern peoples to go south to the Central Plains. So we must ensure a strong mobile force here."
"We are in Rehe. Although our overall combat capabilities are not as good as yours, no one dares to underestimate the nearly 100,000 troops placed there. Although we may not be able to contain many Japanese and puppet troops, at least you can free up two
The division's troops will move westward or northward. The terrain of Jehol is mainly mountainous, which is conducive to the strength of our army in mountain warfare. If something really happens, at least it won't involve too many of your troops."
"But your art troupe, the political department, and the talented people in the field hospital also need to undergo military training. I think it can be done. I heard that your art troupe of the Anti-Japanese Federation is all capable of acting on stage and fighting when off stage, and they can also
There was a wonderful battle."
"At the beginning of this year, one of your art troupes went to the frontier to perform a condolence performance, and encountered half of the Japanese squadron that had infiltrated. Those Japanese soldiers saw a group of female soldiers and thought they could take advantage. But they did not expect that they were beaten to death by a group of you female soldiers.
Half disabled. If I didn’t run faster, I’m afraid no one would be able to escape.”
"Your female soldiers are not just good at shooting, they are at least good at simple combat. Such female soldiers, not to mention all the troops in our customs, I am afraid that you are the only one in the entire army. Good guy,
Those are female soldiers, they are simply warriors. If we had left half a squadron in the past, we might not have been able to defeat a battalion of troops."
"If the female soldiers in our art troupe were half as capable as your female soldiers, they would not let others catch you today. You are right that these non-combatants need to be trained and have the ability to protect themselves. Today
If your troops hadn't acted quickly to rescue the people, the consequences would have been disastrous."
"Training, all non-combatants in the army will be trained according to your standards. You are right, these people are not just actors, art troupe members, doctors and nurses, they are soldiers first. Even if they cannot be used as field troops, but
They must first have the ability to protect themselves.”
"You send instructors to train directly. If anyone complains, ask them to come to me and the political commissar. What happened today must not happen again. Especially those female soldiers. We all know what it will be like if they fall into the hands of the Japanese and puppet troops.
